Remember our Boon Award? As we said in our introductory post here, the Boon Award is our thumbs up sign to our kailiyans who have done (or are doing) good deeds. It is our way of giving recognition to those who are making a positive contribution to our region.
Update: Sunstar has the names of the students who were hurt in this grenade blast. Details here. We hope they will recover from their injuries.
